ADS Nuclear Data Library
Application Library for Accelerator Driven Systems. Application test library in ACE and MATXS format for ADS neutronics design
ADS nuclear data library includes the following:
Resource Characteristics
- ADS-ENDF: Contains selected evaluated nuclear data files in ENDF-6 format.
- ADS-ACE: Contains pointwise continuous-energy cross-section data in ACE format for MCNP calculations; also includes probability tables (PT) in the unresolved resonance range, if applicable. Additionally, the SIGACE package can be downloaded for Doppler broadening of ACE-formatted file - useful for the generation of ACE-formatted files at temperatures higher than 293.6K. Thermal data for hydrogen bound in water (lwtr) is also included at eight temperatures: 293.6, 323.6, 373.6, 423.6, 473.6, 523.6, 573.6 and 623.6K.
- ADS-MATXS: Contains multigroup cross-section data in MATXS format. The ORNL 421-group energy structure was used. The multi-group cross sections are given at different temperatures and Bondarenko's sigma0 values. Thermal scattering cross section is also included for hydrogen bound in water.
